Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented Jan. 6, 1920.

Application led October 3, 1919. Serial No. 328,103.

To all whom t may concern.'

Be it known that I, JOHN F. KinvnLL, a subject of the King of Great Britain, residing at Hamilton, in the county of Wentworth and Province of Ontario, Canada, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Peels, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to improvements in bakers peels, and more particularly to the method of construction, and securing of the handle.

The invention consists essentially of a ribbed member extending around the edge of the handle end of the blade and secured to the same, a central pin integral with said member extending into said blade, and an oppositely disposed socket receptive of a handle and provided with lateral opposed supporting ribs.

The primary objects of the invention are to provide means to effectively protect the wooden peel blade from splitting and bruis- :A further object is attained by simplifying the method of attaching the handle to the blade.

A still further object is to provide a device of the class described, which will be simple, durable, eflicient, and inexpensiveto manufacture.

With these and other objects in view, the invention consists in the construction, combination, and arrangement of the parts as will be hereinafter more fully described, illustrated in the accompanying drawing, and pointed out in the claims hereunto appended.

Referring to the drawing; Figure 1 is an edge view of the peel; Fig. 9, is a face view of the same; Fig. 3 is an enlarged detailed front view of the protective member; and Fig. l is a side view of the same.

Similar reference characters refer to similar parts throughout the several views.

A indicates the peel blade which is of the usual well known design, and B designates the handle which is shown abbreviated in length in the dr. wing, but which is actually of sufcient length to reach the most remote parts of the oven.

C is the protective member embracing the edge of the rounded handle end part of the blade, and which is of the same width as the blade. The said member follows the edge of the blade to a point where its ends begin to parallel each other,'and at its extremities is secured to the blade by wood screws 2. strengthening rib 3 in the center of said member occupies a corresponding groove in the end of the blade, and which rib terminates adjacent to the screw holes for the screws 2.

A tapered pin et integral with the member C occupies a corresponding cavity in the peel blade A, and an oppositely disposed. socket 5 integral with the member C retains the end of the handle B. This socket is pro'- vided with opposed, lateral, inclined ribs 6 to afford additional stability to the same.

A pin 7 is passed through the socket 5 and through the handle B to prevent rotative alrlid longitudinal displacement of said han- Having now fully described my invention, what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is

1. In a device of the character described,`

the combination with a peel blade, of a band extending around the edge of thek handle end of the blade, an inner rib integral with said band and occupying a corresponding groove in the periphery of said handle end of the blade, a pin integral with said band and extending into said blade, an oppositely disposed socket integral with said band and receptive of a handle, and means of securing said handle against longitudinal and rotative displacement, for the purpose set forth.

2. In a device of the class described, the combination with a peel blade and its handle, of a band extending around the edge of the handle end of the blade, an inner rib integral with said band and occupying a corresponding groove in the periphery of said handle end of the blade, means in the opposed ends of said band for securing it to the blade, a taper pin integral with said band and extending into said blade, an oppositely' disposed socket integral with said band and receiving the end of said handle, said socket provided with oppositely disposed lateral inclined ribs, Uand means for securing said handle against longitudinal and rotative displacement, for the purpose set forth.

In testimony whereof I have affixed my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
